Korea: Land of the Morning Calm
("Undoubtedly the warmest, friendliest, most polite and mo...)
"Undoubtedly the warmest, friendliest, most polite and most hospitable people I have met." So wrote Mike Langford after his four months' journey through North and South Korea by bus, boat, bicycle and on foot, often living with the people in their homes. On North Korea he wrote"The countryside is fresh and clean; the people have a spirit of socialism that must be like that of China in the sixties - everyone looks like they have just walked out of a revolutionary poster. They are wonderful!" Whilst Korea is now a highly modernized, industrial society, especially in the South, Mike took his cameras off the track in order to record the magnificent scenery and the Korean people of the countryside. Of the thousands of shots he took, this book pre3sents ninety of them in stunning fashion. Already famous for his photography in such works as 'Han Suyin's China', his empathy with Korea shinee through. In a style that could only be displayed by a native of the country, Chong-Sik Lee, Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania, has produced a fascinating, historical and cultural background text which will surely whet the appetite of the interested student of this comparatively little-known but ancient land. ---- from book's dustjacket

Japan and Korea: The Political Dimension (Hoover Institution Press Publication)
( Events of recent years have revealed that the practical...)
Events of recent years have revealed that the practical problem of Japanese-Korean diplomacy are complicated by underlying emotional issues. A proposed change in Japanese textbooks, which would have subdued criticism of imperial expansion into the Asian continent, elicited protests in Korea as well as China. In Japan, scholarly research into the Korean contribution to Japanese culture and history has sparked both support and opposition. Such seemingly peripheral issues played a significant role in the loan negotiations of 1981-1883, and, unless resolved, threaten to hinder future cooperation between these two peoples. Yet Japanese-South Korean cooperation has become increasingly important in the 1980s as the United States has pressured Japan and the ROK to assume more responsibility for their own defense. This book analyzes the political, psychological, and economic differences that divide two neighbors with common geopolitical concerns. Success or failure! in resolving those differences will, to a large degree, determine the nature of East Asia in the twenty first century.
